A bandage, such as an adhesive bandage or non-adhesive bandage, can be modified to include a cold pack. The cold pack may be placed in a pocket formed by a gauze sponge of the bandage and a backing of the bandage. The cold pack may also be adhered to a surface of the bandage. The cold temperature of the cold pack can, in some instances, reduce swelling at the wound site, possibly facilitate faster healing, and possibly provide psychological benefits that promote healing.
